Undertaker Tales

Finished my last radiation treatment and have been reading books like crazy the last few weeks.
Wayne Bethard, a pharmacist, has a book of funny, thought provoking, stirring short stories with the startling and sometimes off-putting title, Undertaker Tales. I once asked a friend why anyone would choose to be a mortician. I still don't know the answer, but the Undertaker Tales sheds a whole new light on this group of men and women. Far from being the doleful, gloomy, stiff necked men and women living at the local funeral home ss sometimes pictured, Bethard portrays them and their families as people of unusual empathy for those hurting members of our communities. Undertaker Tales include stories submitted by morticians from around the world. One section includes tales of dogs and cats involved in the mortician's life and in the deceased's life.
Undertaker Tales can be purchased at Amazon in book form or downloaded to your kindle.
